We respect your privacy. Read the privacy policy hereAccess to safe legal abortion care is a human right. No one should be forced to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term; and no person should die due to unsafe abortion, pregnancy or childbirth.
In today's political climate, it’s more important than ever to stand united in support of abortion rights and maintain pressure on the political agenda to keep abortion rights a priority.
Our network and Champions push for progressive change and work to de-stigmatise abortion by changing laws and policies, fostering inclusive dialogue and public education and services, without shame.
